Please join us at the Penarth Repair Café on Sunday October 25th to celebrate the tenth anniversary of International Repair Day https://repairday.org/- the annual celebration for everyone who makes repair happen in their communities!

After a successful September repair cafe, our volunteers are looking forward to a special October café - joining communities all over the world celebrating giving new life to household items that need some attention and reducing the waste we send to landfill.

Join us at St Augustine’s Parish Hall from 2-4:30pm and bring along any items in need of repair for our volunteers to take a look at, free of charge. Or just pop in for a cuppa and homemade piece of cake.

At our September cafe, 16 household items were fixed including vacuum cleaners, three pairs of jeans, and an antique clock from Switzerland. Do also pop in if you have any skills you think could be useful and would like to join the team. Join us at St Augustine’s Parish Hall or email us at [email protected].

Let’s carry on reducing landfill and saving money😊.

Best wishes,
The Penarth Repair team

Are you suffering with unraveling hems? Is that hole in the crotch of your jeans getting too big to risk bending over? Never fear - our trusty sewing volunteers are here!

Not sure if you should finally throw away that lamp that won't switch on.... whether the mower has actually died, or whether the noise is just the spout from Millie's* toy teapot, wedged deep inside the mechanism going around and around (sounds absolutely terrible, fixed in minutes!!!)

*Some names have been changed....

See you there tomorrow - you bring the misbehaving electrical items, we'll bring the screwdrivers (and cake....)

Ble i ffeindio ni // Where to find us: St Augustines Church Hall, Albert Road CF64 1BX.

NOT the church itslef, but the hall opposite the park (paid a phoeni - chi ddim yr un cyntaf i wneud.....)
